Our latest review is now available at Immunological Reviews! We discuss how "Metabolic adaptations determine whether natural killer cells fail or thrive within the tumor microenvironment". Congrats to co-first authors Adnan Moinuddin, Sophie Poznanski, and @Ana_LPortillo!
Registration is now open for CanNKC 2024 Symposium! You won’t want to miss the trainee talks or this fantastic lineup of keynote speakers! @sarah_crome @david_raulet and Mary Carrington 2024cannkcsymposium.rsvpify.com
Researchers with @MacDeptMed have discovered a new cell that remembers your allergies. @jfekoenig @KellyBruton_ @ALK_net @allyssaphelps @McMasterU ow.ly/ZIO950QyVUu
The immune system's response to infection is responsible for neurological damage - not the infection itself, finds new research published @NatureComms. @LizBalint, research lead and PhD student @McMasterU, on the impact of a unique population of T cells. ow.ly/QjYA50Qy0nY
CD8+ T cells mediate virus-induced neuropathology via antigen-independent, NKG2D-mediated cytotoxicity @Ashkar_Lab @LizBalint nature.com/articles/s4146…
For years, it was thought that acute viral infections like Zika or COVID-19 were directly responsible for neurological damage; however, researchers at @Ashkar_Lab have discovered that it’s actually the immune system — not the virus — that's responsible. 👇 healthsci.mcmaster.ca/immune-respons…
Save the date! #CanNKC2024 will be held June 13-14, 2024 @uOttawa! Stay tuned for more details!
Happy Halloween from the Ashkar lab!

And if any trainees would like to talk more about becoming a scientific editor, my dms and inbox are always open!
It was a pleasure to take part in this panel, thank you to @CdnImmunol and the EDI committee for the invitation! @JExpMed is committed to being an inclusive home for immunologists and immunology research (and beyond!) ✨
Thank you to our EDI panelists for sharing their experiences in careers outside academia, in the spirit of celebrating diversity in immunology as open paths for inclusivity and belonging #CSI2024
